The French Open Has Banned Serena Williams' "Black Panther" Catsuit, Saying It Went "Too Far"

“It will no longer be accepted," said the French Tennis Federation president. "One must respect the game and the place."

Serena Williams' black compression bodysuit went "too far," a top tennis official said, and it won't be allowed at future French Opens.

French Tennis Federation president Bernard Giudicelli told Tennis magazine that the French Open would be instating a dress code for future tournaments.

"I think that sometimes we've gone too far," he told the magazine, according to the Associated Press.

Giudicelli specifically referenced Williams' skintight black suit, which the star wears to promote blood circulation and prevent clots.
